HEATH SMILED as he watched Luella as she ate. His eyes didn't go unnoticed by Luella as she arched her brows at him.
"Is something wrong?" She questioned, sipping calmly on her wine.
Heath smiled and crossed his legs, he placed an elbow on his crossed leg and gave her a boyish smile, "Luella, I love you. Please marry me,"
The wine went the wrong direction after his proclamation. She spat out the rest from her mouth and began coughing. Tiecia's eyes widened as she rushed to her aid.
Tapping and rubbing calm circles on her back, the maid replaced the wine with water.
As Luella drink, she lifted her eyes to glare at Heath. He had gone far with his confession. It really shocked her.
